Pie pans. Specifically, I want to get some non-stick pie pans.
I spent time yesterday checking through local stores, online and in the places, and none. A few standard steel pans, a very few fancy ceramics, lots of cake pans and cookie sheets and such, but non-stick pie pans? Not a damned one.
That includes Wal Mart. "We can deliver it in 3 days, but we don't carry them in the stores."

Annoying, it is.

You are seeking the toxic teflon coated kind?
Get the steel ones.
I just use cast iron skillets for pans. For pies and cheesecakes (no water bath either)
I know you didn't specifically solicit advice, but you're gonna get some anyway.
I don't make pies a lot, but when I do I always make them from scratch...and I make very good pies.
I prefer pyrex style glass pie plates. They aren't technically non-stick, but they're better than metal, and ceramic tends to be too heavy and absorbs too much heat, which increases the baking time quite a bit. Glass to me seems to be the best. BTW: I do grease my pie plates very lightly with tallow or crisco before dropping the bottom crust in. That helps prevent sticking, but doesn't affect the flavor (as long as you use it sparingly) or bake time.
Same here. Wanted to make an apple pie for Thanksgiving.
Probably avoiding it because if you get it over 500 degrees it starts putting off poison.
I have found that a lot recently. Something that used to be stocked at the store is no longer stocked at the store. Oh, we can order that for you. Or, you can go online and order it yourself. Not sure about why this is happening but I am seeing it more and more.
